Description

Underground gasification system and method for electric heating coal bed
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of coal seam development, in particular to an underground gasification system and method for an electric heating coal seam.
Background
The Underground Coal Gasification technology (UCG) is also called as in-situ Coal Gasification, and the process is to convert the Coal bed existing Underground from physical Coal mining to chemical Coal mining, and the essential thing is to convert the useful substances (volatile components, fixed carbon and the like) in the Coal into combustible gas through physical and chemical conversion modes such as pyrolysis, combustion, Gasification and the like. UCG comprises well type and non-well type coal underground gasification processes, integrates well building, coal mining and gasification into a whole, and has the advantages of low gas production cost, high safety and good environmental benefit. The cost of the gas produced by the UCG is only 25-50% of that of the ground gasification furnace, and the UCG can be used as the raw material gas for gas power generation, boiler fuel and synthetic chemical products, so that the cost of power generation or synthetic chemical products is obviously reduced. UCG still has apparent environmental benefit, reduces the emission of coal fired pollution, gangue and lime-ash greatly, effectively solves the atmosphere haze problem that present coal-fired arouses, and combines together with carbon entrapment and sequestration technique, can effectively reduce greenhouse gas and discharge. UCG is a coal development method, is an innovation of the traditional coal mining mode, and is known as a second generation coal mining method; from the benefit, the method is a new technology for developing clean energy by low carbon of high carbon resources. The technology has wide application prospect in the aspects of mining and utilization of residual coal such as low-quality (high-sulfur and high-ash), steep inclined, thin coal bed, deep coal bed, coal pressing under the third coal bed, conventional technology economy, non-mining and the like.
At present, the coal underground gasification does not realize industrialized production, and one important reason is that the scale of the coal underground gasification is small and the gas production is unstable. On one hand, under the influence of external hydrological and geological environment, the conditions (coal thickness, coal quality and the like) and occurrence conditions (geology, hydrology, structure and the like) of a gasified coal bed are complex and variable, the difficulty is increased for the underground gasification process of the coal, and the factors needing manual regulation and control are more; secondly, the control means of the underground coal gasification process is limited, and is influenced by factors such as high temperature, gas, coal body thermal fracture, surrounding rock stress, overlying strata collapse, fissure zone development and the like of an underground gasification space, so that effective monitoring and control means are difficult to be adopted like an underground coal gas producer, and the difficulty of artificial regulation and control is increased.
In the prior art, scholars at home and abroad propose different types of underground coal gasification furnace structures and gasification production methods aiming at different coal seam occurrence conditions. In the aspect of the construction of the gasification furnace type, from the distribution positions of the gas injection channel, the gasification channel and the exhaust channel, the underground gasification furnace can be divided into a plurality of furnace types, namely a blind hole furnace, a one-line furnace, a V-shaped furnace, a U-shaped furnace, an E-shaped furnace and the like, and then a porous furnace and a long fireplace capable of converting the gas injection and exhaust operations are invented. The research direction of overseas underground gasification is mainly a well-free coal underground gasification process, a coal underground gasification furnace is constructed by drilling on the ground, and the well-free gasification process which is relatively mature comprises a linear Injection Point retreat process (CRIP) and a parallel directional drilling CRIP process. The existing well type coal underground gasification process adopts two adjacent vertical well bores as an injection well and a gas production well of a gasification agent respectively, then adopts various communication methods (such as fire communication, electric power communication, reverse combustion, air fracturing and the like) to enable the bottoms of the two vertical well bores to be communicated in a coal seam to form a gasification channel, and then the gasification agent is blown in from the gas injection well to produce gas from the gas production well. The furnace building process of the gasification furnace has the defects of low penetration speed, poor penetration directionality, difficult penetration or impossible penetration when the vertical well spacing is large; the vertical drilling distance is small, the number of vertical drilling is large during continuous production, and the investment is large; a gas injection device is not arranged in the gasification furnace, and the gasification agent is diffused and combusted in the whole gasification furnace, so that the combustion range and the boundary can not be effectively controlled, and the gas production quality is low; the enlarged combustion range causes large area collapse of the overlying strata, and the stability control effect of the surrounding rocks is poor. According to the existing well-free CRIP process, a drawtube type mobile gas injection point device is adopted in the aspect of gas injection control, a gas injection point is pulled backwards periodically, the gas injection point is pulled backwards for a certain distance every time, a large-scale gas injection elbow spiral pulling device needs to be built on the ground, the equipment investment is high, the process operation is complex, the gas injection elbow is difficult to seal at the ground end, and when the coal seam buries deeply, the operation reliability of the mobile gas injection device is reduced under the influence of geological stress and drilling deformation.
Therefore, in order to solve the problems of the existing underground coal gasification furnace production system, the underground coal gasification furnace production system and the process which are adaptive to geological environment and have a controllable function need to be developed, and technical support is provided for further realizing the industrialization of underground coal gasification.

In summary, the effective method for electrically heating an underground gasified coal seam provided by the invention is greatly improved compared with the existing coal seam gas development method: the production process of the invention is divided into two stages, wherein the first stage is a stage of exploiting coal bed first-stage pyrolysis gas by heating to about 200 ℃ with steam, and the second stage is an underground coal second-stage pyrolysis gasification stage by heating to 500-800 ℃ with an electric heater. 1) The initial steam heating has the advantages of uniformity and high efficiency, the whole coal bed after volume fracturing can be heated to more than 200 ℃, the volatile part in the coal bed can be extracted to the maximum extent to cause further cracking of shale oil, and the maximization of the output liquid oil is ensured. 2) The injected steam has longer contact time and higher temperature with the coal bed at higher temperature (500-800 ℃), has obvious modification effect on solid coking substances in the coal, and improves the conversion efficiency; because a large amount of first-stage pyrolysis gas is produced at the operation stage of 200 ℃, a large amount of volatile matters in the coal bed are volatilized, and the residual coke forms a porous medium and has certain permeability, so that conditions are provided for later stage water injection or gas injection; 3) air and oxygen are not injected in the process at the initial stage of operation, so that the safety of the operation process and the high quality of the produced gas are ensured. Air is injected to continue gasification at the later stage of the operation process, so that the full gasification of coke can be ensured, and the gasification efficiency is improved; 4) different from the ground coal gasification process, abundant metal elements in the coal bed can be used as catalysts, so that the conversion of immature substances in the coal bed is promoted, and the coal conversion efficiency is improved.
